Thanks dudes...

Here is the XJ the week I got it.

And here it is the last time I took it out for a trip.

Leafs are totally blown out and the rear passenger side shock decided to rip off the hanger. Needless to say, I am collecting parts to get it back on the road, well trails ASAP.

Drove it today, suspension SUCKS. I hosed all the bolts down with penetrating oil to get it ready for the re-lift! Buddy's garage should be clear in a couple weeks to do the work!

W00t!!

I like that. I don't have the trailer so I am always really loaded down

Yeah, the trailer is nice for sure. Holds a ton of stuff and of course, on board on demand hot water, kitchen and a 3-4 person tent. Weight is getting up there however, probably at 1100# loaded now.

Needs trailer brakes.

:D

Thanks man.
Yes, me too. I love the trailer setup. Nice and handy, and hauls a lot of stuff. Teaser shots of it in action and during construction.

On board hot water is on my list for the portable shower. We are thinking of copper tubbing around the exhaust pipe. But we will have to camp next to a good water source to pull it off
